Be The Speak That You Change About

	  		
verse 1 

C                                       F   
And I don't think you made this for me anyway 
    Am            G                C 
But I still come around to try to see 
                                       F 
I'm laughing at the conversations and hearsay 
             Am                G             C 
I'd like to light a match and burn this industry 
                                F 
Hold on, stay strong, you told me to 
C                                F 
I showed up, and we talked and I knew 

verse 2 

             Am                         F           G               
That it's a long way home when you're tired with a lot on your mind 
Am                  F             G        
You backtrack to extract all the wisdom, you find  
Am 
the words to put a curse,  
      F            G 
This generation's getting worse 
    F                           G 
And I won't be responsible for all this degradation 

Interlude: C F (x2) 

verse 3 

C                                                               F 
So sing it back to me, this scene, let's celebrate tragedy, and sink 
                                       C 
Below the decency we had when we were young 
                                                   F 
I feel hostility, this cash dictates diplomacy and "cool" 
                                   Am 
This doesn't feel like a community 
       Em              F                         Am 
'Cause most of these bands would sell their souls 
       Em          F          G            Am 
For a four star review and a sold out show 
    Em      F                     Am        F 
An opening spot on tour for some washed-up band 
         G                  C  F  C  F 
I don't think I care anymore 

Bridge 

C                              F 
I know I care, I just can't go on and on like I belong 
C                                    F 
I'll meet you there, I just can't go on and on, I think I'll stay home 
C                                F 
I know you care, I just can't go on and on like I belong 
C                               F                       
I'll meet you there, I see the way they talk about you, it's so wrong 
C                              F 
I know I care, I just can't go on and on like I belong 
C                                    F 
I'll meet you there, I just can't go on and on, I think I'll stay home
